Cesc
Fabregas played down the fact he got a hostile reception from some Arsenal
fans during Chelsea's win over his old club.
Fabregas put in a fine performance against his old club creating the second
goal for Chelsea with a wonderful pass to enable Diego Costa to score.
Asked afterwards if the victory had been sweeter given the negativity aimed
towards him by some Arsenal supporters, the Spain international told Sky
Sports 1: "Not at all.
"I have huge respect for Arsenal - they gave me everything when I was
little. Without them I wouldn't be here and I wouldn't have won what I have
won.
"I have huge respect and I take it in a positive way. I know they love me
and it is all because we were together once.
"Sometimes, circumstances mean these things can happen. But I have always
said it - I am not scared. They will always be in my heart forever.
"But this is football, I am in this fantastic football club now playing with
great players, a great coach and great fans and I want to win everything.
"I am hungry and really want to do well for this club. I hope I can make it
in the future."
